Patriot Inferno 100GB
[Posted by: Steve]

Today we are checking out the newly released Patriot Inferno Solid-State Drive series and comparing them with the industry’s leading MLC based SSDs. To date Patriot has released a long list of SSD products, and the Inferno series is now at the top of that list. With so much competition already present, we are keen to see what they have in store for us...

However, making the Inferno purchase significantly less risky is the impressive 5 year warranty, which we believe is unmatched by the competition. This lengthy warranty should attract heavy power users, as it means they do not have to be as conservative with the Inferno. After all, at some point in time all SSDs will fail to write data, and it is nice to know that an investment in the Inferno will not be written off within a 5 year period.

I have one of these drives. I have asked Patriot if you are going to fix the capacity size like other makers. No reply yet. Please update the review with any info about this if you can find out when and if they will release a new firmware. Ohh and nice review.

The performance of these things is getting better but the price is still insane. It was interesting to read about the reliability issues. Thanks for the hard work and keep it up.

If you buy a 10-pack, 1 TDK 1.44MB floppy-disk will cost you about 0.50$ .. buy 700 and you will have about a GB worth of
storage for the super-cheap price of only 350$ .
Or you could buy 3 Corsair Flash Voyager 32 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drives at the bargain-price of 93.99$ each = 281.97$ for 96GB
unformatted capacity .. and about 15 MB/s write-speed under ideal conditions .

You still think SSD's are "expensive" or could it be that
electro-mechanical HDD's are so dirt-cheap that it messes with your perception of what "expensive" is ?

I appreciate the concern which is been rose. The things need to be
sorted out because it is about the individual but it can be with
everyone.

I think the warranty is really important for these things given the price. I have already had my Vertex die on me once, it was still under warranty which was good but I did loose the data that I failed to back up. Not that much can be done about that :(

Its a shame that 100GB is the smallest drive they make. I would love to get a pair of 50's for RAID1. Looks like I will have to go with Corsair or OCZ.
